Now that you mention It is a surprise to see an intercontinental bomber when planes those size and class would've be blown out of the sky by the lux heck even the smaller ones can knock them out actually they should have been faced out. low, fast and heavilly loaded B-1 type bomber should've been the norm for warfare that they have been conducting
